There were some fruits placed in front of Qi Xingyun. At the same time, there were also fruits placed on another table.

After Zi Yan entered the room, she raised her hand to salute Qi Xingyun.

"Kowtow to Your Majesty."

"Without courtesy, please tell me the news you got." Qi Xingyun said hurriedly.

"Ping'an County, there is a problem." Zi Yan said calmly.

Zi Yan's words were very bland and without any emotion, but Qi Xingyun's face turned dark instantly.

Qi Xingyun took a deep breath to calm himself down.

Although he had already guessed it, he felt very uncomfortable when he actually got the news.

"Ping'an County Magistrate, that young man, I used to be very optimistic about him, but I didn't expect..." Qi Xingyun couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

"Your Majesty, people change, and not everyone will never forget their original intentions." Zi Yan was silent for a while before speaking.

She could understand Qi Xingyun's inner struggle and pain. How could a promising young man do such a thing behind his back? How could he not be heartbroken?

"Back then, when Fang Feirong stood in the main hall and talked eloquently, I felt that this young man had ideas and was willing to do things. I personally ranked him second in the top two, and then sent him to Ping'an County for training...

Young people, if they want to achieve something, they can't do it without exercising."

"Someone once said to me a very reasonable saying, that the prime minister must be from the state, and the strong general must be from the army. I deeply believed it, but I didn't expect that he would deceive me on this kind of matter, and it would be in vain.

of trust.”

Qi Xingyun slowly closed his eyes.

"Your Majesty, how should we handle this?" Zi Yan would not take matters into his own hands.

"Just do whatever you want to do. Daqi's laws cannot be just for decoration. I must do things according to the laws."

Qi Xingyun said: "I will issue an arrest warrant for you now. You should act according to the situation. It is best not to alarm too many people."

"Okay." Zi Yan nodded.

"Put this matter aside for now...Have you made arrangements for Bailudong Academy?" Qi Xingyun sat down again, picked up an apple, and talked while eating.

If you meet with those important ministers, you will naturally have to be solemn and solemn, meticulous, and maintain the image of the emperor.

But there is no need to meet Zi Yan.

Zi Yan's identity is the commander of the hidden guards, and he is directly responsible for him. Many inhumane secrets are handled by Zi Yan.

This is a true "one's own" and there is no need to be too restrained.

"Xingchen is preparing, I believe we can do it." Zi Yan said.

"You have full confidence in him, but to say the least, Xingchen is a smart kid. As long as he wants to do it, there is nothing he can't do." Speaking of Luo Xingchen, Qi Xingyun showed a smile on his face.

He likes the child Luo Xingchen very much, otherwise, he would not have the idea of ​​considering him as a candidate for the next generation successor.

He is cultivating Luo Xingchen in the same way now. It depends on whether Luo Xingchen can pass his tests again and again.

"Come, I will give you a token to check the Royal Secret Palace. I will ask Wang Yun to take you there later." Qi Xingyun said.

Wang Yun stood aside and nodded.

In this way, Zi Yan's purpose of coming has been achieved.

After a while, Qi Xingyun wrote the arrest warrant and prepared the token.

Carrying two items, Zi Yan left the side hall of Yangxin Hall.

"Eunuch Wang, does this Royal Secret Palace exist since the time of Taizu?" Zi Yan asked.

Wang Yun and Zi Yan have a good personal relationship. Privately, Zi Yan has also taken care of Wang Yun's nephews and grandchildren. In addition, Wang Yun's own family also has some shares in Yang's Trading Company.

Because of this, Zi Yan was able to ask the doubts in her heart.

Any other minister would not dare to have too much friendship or involvement with a powerful eunuch like Wang Yun.

"This royal secret palace was built by the Taizu of this dynasty by collecting the scattered classics of the previous dynasties. Later emperors added to them, and collected many unique books, as well as many secret records." Wang Yun

said enthusiastically.

He knew a lot about the Royal Secret Palace. After all, he had been responsible for managing the Royal Secret Palace for more than twenty years when he was the Supreme Emperor.

"Where is the information about the big families in Jiangnan?" Zi Yan asked.

"Yes, several big families in the south of the Yangtze River were already big families during the previous dynasties and the southern dynasties. They have inherited a lot of information until now. I remember there is a special Jiangnan Pavilion." Wang Yun said.

The inside of the palace was like a maze, with twists and turns. If Wang Yun hadn't led the way, Zi Yan doubted whether she would have been able to find it.

"This is the Royal Secret Palace?" Zi Yan looked at the palace in front of him and said in surprise.

What surprised her was that the palace in front of her was too ordinary.

In the palace, there are at least hundreds of buildings like this, many of which are where the maids and eunuchs live.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Zi Yan felt relieved. It was precisely because the surface of this place was so ordinary that it had not been damaged by previous disturbances in Da Qi for more than a hundred years.

"The Royal Secret Palace, currently only the Emperor and I can open it."

Wang Yun stepped forward, took out the key, and started to open the first door.

All the way in, Wang Yun opened ten doors in a row before actually walking inside.

"quite splendid."

After Zi Yan entered the interior, her first impression was that the Royal Secret Palace was really big, with a large number of books placed on the rows of bookshelves inside.

This cannot be sorted out by one person, it must be the hard work of several generations.

"This place used to be very prosperous, and many scholars sorted out materials and stored them here. But during the time of the Supreme Emperor, this place..."

At this point, Wang Yun stopped and did not continue.

After all, Wang Yun was the emperor's closest person and was a taboo of the emperor, so that couldn't be explained too clearly.

However, Zi Yan already understood what he meant without him continuing to speak.

This place was abandoned in the hands of the Supreme Emperor.

Throughout his years on the throne, we can see that the Supreme Emperor was an extremely complex person with two sides, including a wise side and a foolish and unprincipled side.

I don’t know whether it was a blessing or a curse that this place became what it is now in the hands of the Supreme Emperor.

"Where is the Jiangnan Pavilion?"

Zi Yan came in to look for information about several Jiangnan families in the Jiangnan Museum. She would not spend time looking at information that had nothing to do with what she was looking for.

After all, if you want to read all the books here, you may not be able to do it in your lifetime.

"The Jiangnan Pavilion is still inside."

Wang Yun walked inside. The farther inside, the lower the terrain became, and he was gradually walking underground.

The Jiangnan Pavilion, like other areas, has a separate room.

When we got underground, the oil lamps hanging all around were very bright, illuminating the room.

"Right here, this is all the information in the Jiangnan Pavilion."

Zi Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
